My roses have behaved as well on the whole as was to be expected, and the Viscountess Folkestones and Laurette Messimys have been most beautiful, the latter being quite the loveliest things in the garden, each flower an exquisite loose cluster of coral-pink petals, paling at the base to a yellow-white.
But it is queer the way he'll just take anything at all from Bill Goodine. It's somethin' we don't none of us understand." "I reckon he does well to be scared of him," said Laurette, with her head very high in the air. By this time Goodine had formed his plans, and had got to work.
"I most devoutly echo that trust, my Lord, and pray that God, who watches over us all, may guard your health while sojourning here." "Forgive me, madame, if, within the shadow of these walls, I say 'Amen' to your prayer with some emphasis." The Countess Laurette contented herself with bowing low and humbly crossing herself, making no verbal reply to his Lordship's remark.
Bertha and I were simply shaking, though. I heard Miss Walters say to Laurette: 'There's a spare bed at present in the Blue room, and we thought she was moving in for the rest of the term! Think of being boxed up with Laurette! Wouldn't it have been absolutely grisly?" "Nothing at all particularly exciting happened while you were away!" groused Bertha.
"My Lord Archbishop of Treves, the Countess Laurette von Starkenburg invites you to sup with her." The intelligent war-horse, who had regarded the obstructing force with head held high, retreated slowly step by step, until now a considerable distance separated the two companies.
Diamond Jim Brady was there, as usual, and Laurette Taylor showed up with a party. The show at the Revels is quite good. I am enclosing a programme. "Last night a few of us went round to Frolics on the Roof " And so on and so forth, yards of it. I suppose it's the artistic temperament or something.
If he tries to question you about yourself and where you came from, don't mention the Anita Lawton Club, but remember his questions carefully and come and tell me." "Certainly, m'sieur, I shall remember." Agnes Olson and Laurette Murfree, the switchboard operator to Carlis and filing clerk to Mallowe, respectively, added practically the same information as had the two preceding girls.
"Carmel says the real Mafia sign their names in blood, but I think that's horrid, and red ink will do quite as well. Just as I was coming out now, Laurette said to me; 'Oh, don't go running away, because I want one of you younger ones to do something for me presently. She said it with the air of a duchess!" "Cheek!" agreed the others. "It's high time we made up a society against her!"
Perhaps the mistress was lonely, possibly she was flattered by receiving so much attention, at any rate she allowed Laurette to be on terms of great intimacy, and gave her a far larger share of her confidence than was at all wise. Laurette, after a hot affection lasting three weeks, got tired of Miss Herbert, and suddenly cooled off.
I thought we were all beggars when we tried to raise money for the 'Waifs and Strays'; Bertha buzzes worse than any mosquito when she wants to borrow my penknife, and I thought there was an earthquake the last time Laurette danced. "I like all the old houses and castles and cathedrals in Old England, and especially the old gardens. What I don't like are my old lessons.
